I had some delays, but i just came back from the post office and the camera is on its way to Macfred!
 
YAY! We're already rocking with with one! We could set a speed record... :blink:
 
The camera just arrived today from Helsinki, Suomi / Finland !!
Next weekend I will take my photographs before I'll send it to Raphael / France.

Yep, we're pretty fast so far!
 
Forwarded you Raphael's adress, check your earlier conversation with me.
 
Hey, can we include our Australian friend @Dr Croubie in the camera trip ? Maybe between Nedl the californian and Rachel in Japan ? Or as I am the last in Europe, we can start the trip to the East (Euro centered map-wise) , and I send the camera to Rachel or to Doctor C .?

@macfred @locutus : thanks for the information ! I am ready :smile: But have we defined a theme for this round ? Do we need one ?


Dr Croubie said:
Wow, round 11 already? Nice to see that the signup thread started over 2 years ago (continuing the precedent started in round 10, obviously)

Count me in if it's not already too late? (Adelaide, Australia, you gotta have at least one photo from this hemisphere)

Hey, maybe lets just keep the list as agreed on. There will be a camera 12 ;-)

Hi locutus,
I was just asking for courtesy to Dr Croubie, as I don't think he got an answer :smile:
So, I am now waiting the camera :smile:

Hi folks,
I got an unexpected parcel from Germany today :smile: Unexpected, because I missed Macfred's last update on this thread. The camera is in perfect condition... Ahem, now, that's gone wrong are the weather condition here ! And I still have to found interesting opportunities to fill four shots, since I am not used to this camera speed :wink:

Stay tuned,
Regards,

Raphael

Well, three shots made, plus a totally black... Because I forgot the lens cap on :cry: and absolutely nothing warned me about it...
I am in fact a little worried for the two first shots, as I wonder if I had really removed that damn cap.
Probably not clever to shot a fifth one, so, I will need soon the address of @Wallendo from North Carolina...
Best regards,

Raphael

On my phone now, will send you the address in the morning!

And jup, I fear I shot a blank too on my turn
 
Good to know guys. Watch out for the lens cap everybody!! It's a tricky bugger :smile:
 
@locutus : well received, many thanks !

BTW : Thanks to @macfred for the signed print and small message kindly included in the package. I will try to do the same thing before posting camera to @Wallendo :smile:

About the damn lens cap, I think I have a genuine Konica Pop cap somewhere. It has a plastic "corner" which can protrude beyond the viewfinder, and acts as a reminder.
If I'll get it, I'll give it with the camera.

Regards,

Raphael
 
I'll keep an eye out for it.

From following previous threads, I wasn't expecting this until sometime in 2020 :wink:
 
@Wallendo : Glad you had seen my message :smile: Wish you a good reception and happy shooting. Don't forget the cap ! bandit:

For information of everyone, I changed the two AA battery for fresh ones just before shipping. I have indeed found before the flash popped-up last time I picked the camera from my bag, and was afraid of drained them.
Regards,

Raphael

Not too worry, the camera will fire without batteries fitted. And they should last quite a couple of flash pops, far more then 36 exposures on the roll! :-D
